We show rational homological stability for the homotopy automorphisms and block diffeomorphims of iterated connected sums of products of spheres. The spheres can have different dimension, but need to satisfy a certain connectivity…
For a Liouville domain $W$ satisfying $c_1(W)=0$, we propose in this note two versions of symplectic Tate homology $\underrightarrow{H}\underleftarrow{T}(W)$ and $\underleftarrow{H}\underrightarrow{T}(W)$ which are related by a canonical…
We prove that any coadjoint orbit with real eigenvalues of a complex semisimple Lie group, equipped with the real part of the canonical holomorphic symplectic form, is symplectomorphic to the cotangent bundle of a (partial) flag manifold.…
In any dimension $2n \ge 6$ we show that certain spaces of symplectic embeddings of a polydisk into a product $B^4 \times \Bbb R^{2(n-2)}$ of a $4$-ball and Euclidean space, are not path connected. We also show that any pair of such…
We use spectral invariants in Lagrangian Floer theory in order to show that there exist \emph{isometric} embeddings of normed linear spaces (finite or infinite dimensional, depending on the case) into the space of Hamiltonian deformations…
We generalize Nikulin's and Dolgachev's lattice-theoretical mirror symmetry for K3 surfaces to lattice polarized higher dimensional irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds. In the case of fourfolds of $K3^{\left[2\right]}-$type we then…
Consider a complete orientable manifold with countably many components of bounded dimension. Suppose that its rational homology is infinitely generated in some degree. Then there is no choice of weight function for which the natural map…
We prove that the space of symplectic embeddings of $n\geq 1$ standard balls into the standard complex projective plane $\mathbb{C}\mathrm{P}^2$ is homotopy equivalent to the configuration space of $n$ points in $\mathbb{C}\mathrm{P}^2$,…
Let $\varphi:F_1\to F_2$ be an injective morphism of free groups. If $\varphi$ is geometric (i.e. induced by an inclusion of oriented compact connected surfaces with nonempty boundary), then we show that $\varphi$ is an isometric embedding…
We found some Lagrangian submanifolds of the adjoint semisimple orbit in two cases. For the first, the compact case, also known as the Generalized flag manifolds, we prove that the real flags can be seen as infinitesimally tight Lagrangian…
Here we carefully construct an equivalence between the derived category of coherent sheaves on an elliptic curve and a version of the Fukaya category on its mirror. This is the most accessible case of homological mirror symmetry. We also…
We study the extension of homologically trivial symplectic or Hamiltonian cyclic actions to Hamiltonian circle actions on irrational ruled symplectic $4$-manifolds. On one hand, we construct symplectic involutions on minimal irrational…
For some symmetric pyramids of $R^3$ , we find Galois obstruction for their Dehn invariant to be zero, i.e. for the pyramids to be scissor equivalent to a cube. These conditions are that some associated Kummer extensions of number fields…
We study the spaces of embeddings of manifolds in a Euclidean space. More precisely we look at the homotopy fiber of the inclusion of these spaces to the spaces of immersions. As a main result we express the rational homotopy type of…
In this note we classify simply connected rationally elliptic compact toric orbifolds up to algebraic isomorphism.
We classify all closed, aspherical Riemannian manifolds M whose universal cover has indiscrete isometry group. One sample application is the theorem that any such M with word-hyperbolic fundamental group must be isometric to a negatively…
We construct a new family of infinite-dimensional quasi-graded Lie algebras on hyperelliptic curves. We show that constructed algebras possess infinite number of invariant functions and admit a decomposition into the direct sum of two…
The Ehrhart polynomial and Ehrhart series count lattice points in integer dilations of a lattice polytope. We introduce and study a $q$-deformation of the Ehrhart series, based on the notions of harmonic spaces and Macaulay's inverse…
A simple construction is presented, which generalises piecewise linear one-dimensional Markov maps to an arbitrary number of dimensions. The corresponding coupled map lattice, known as a simplicial mapping in the mathematical literature,…
Here I present several theorems about trapezoids tilings. The first one is related to trapezoids with rational base relation, the other ones are related to those with base relation from quadratic number field.
